DIY projects to savour summer

Share:

Add a touch of the season to your London apartment. The blog team at Hazelview Properties has been on the lookout for do-it-yourself summer projects to help you savour the warmer weather while it lasts. Check out what the team has found so far in today’s blog post.

Display a bouquet

One of the loveliest parts of summer is the abundant greenery. A bouquet can add colour and a pleasant fragrance to your London apartment. Brighten the room and create space for your new bouquet with this painted bottle tutorial or make hanging mason jars as a unique way to display your summer flowers. 

Flowers to last

Want your flowers to last longer? Preserve the season’s colourful foliage by creating artwork that uses and saves summer flowers. Press wildflowers and place inside of a white frame then display this simple do-it-yourself project in any room in your London apartment.

String art

This summer, set aside an afternoon to create your very own string art. This Hello Sunshine project is cute and playful, sure to add a little summertime cheer to any room.

Big bow pillowcases

Instead of buying something new for your apartment or starting a project from square one, opt instead to upgrade or improve household items that you already have. For example, turn dull wintery throw pillows into colorful summertime accents. This fun project is for true crafters, as it requires a little sewing. It will only take you 20 minutes to have fun summer pillows for your living room sofa.

Find your supplies

Ready to start on your DIY project? Begin with a visit to Bijan’s Art Studio (673 Richmond Street), less than a ten-minute walk from 565 Talbot Street Apartments. This local arts and crafts store has the supplies you need to start working on your craft. Summer hours are on weekdays from 10:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. and on Saturday until 5:00 p.m.

Use today's post from Hazelview Properties to brainstorm a fun project that celebrates and savours the summer season. For more information about any of our unique London apartments, simply visit our website.
